An Outdore celebration of the first loaf of bread made from the first wheat of the first harvest.

Lammas is an ancient Christian festival - the word comes from the Old English words for loaf and mass - recalling all the blessings of life.

Come from 0845 for a 0900 start (more or less, we know how tricky it can be to arrive on time). Bring a picnic breakfast, a rug or chairs. If it’s drizzling we’ll be under one of the glorious beech trees. If it’s raining, there’s lots of room in the Abbey.

The young and young at heart - and everyone else - is welcome.
